Can you lock model X with keys inside?

It might be detecting your phone’s Bluetooth if you have your phone with you when attempting to open the door.

I too was disappointed that I couldn’t get it to stay locked in the dead zone, but I’ve replicated this multiple times:
- Left key in dead zone, walked away, came back and it opened (had phone in my pocket).
- Key in dead zone, walked away, left my phone on the ground a decent distance away, came back, tried the door and it stayed locked.


What year model is your X?
Seems there is no longer a "dead spot" on 2019 or newer.
 
Just had Paint Protection Film done on my ‘20 MX and they locked the key in the trunk (5 seater) and they could t get it to open again. They texted me and asked me to remotely unlock it. Unfortunately mine seems to have some LTE issues so I had to drive the spare over
